My point was not that my Q is a rocket, but that Mustangs aren't all that
fast.  This is not the first time I've taken out a GT. I think the smoke
from his tires illustrated his desire to best the Q. As well as his repeated
attempts at the next two stop lights.

The real joke is that I have a witness, my passenger, who is a '91 Mustang GT
owner.   One other thing...my Q used to belong to Jeff Zwart(of Pikes Peak
Hillclimb, Road and Track Calendar fame), and I have yet to find out exactly
what he did to it.
